2 ics layout from achep and zdune

zdune's one not working for me, will try sometime.

I dont know the difference, but i think zdune's one is nicer. cause achep's one cause bugs.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

U have to test it with acpatcher, see whether there are conflicts.

I think statusbar icon order will conflict.
[Android Themes] Felimenta97:
Hmm. Got it. Have you already made it?
[Android Themes] zhuhang:
make what?

You patch? Uploaded.

Center mouse and icon order mod? No.
[Android Themes] Felimenta97:
On, thanks. I forgot you uploaded to MediaFire, sorry.

EDIT: What is my file? I can't see any indentification and the files seems to small, the framework-res has 3.5 MB, the files only have 400 Kb.
[Android Themes] mrkacau:
Hey buddy, can you make the whitepressed Ring Lock MOD + ICS Layout + ICS Transition?

thanks! oh wait, Happy New Year btw :)
[Android Themes] zhuhang:
those starting with old are old files, the latest one are update-XXX+XXX+XXX

OK.

EDIT: DONE. Link in second post.
[Android Themes] mrkacau:
thanks! but I got boot loop once I flashed "update-ICS-layout+transition+white-pressed-lock-ac-patch.zip". Any chance to get this stuff working again? :O

EDIT: Everything works now! thanks again
[Android Themes] Felimenta97:
Sorry, there must be a problem. You said about new and old files. I can't see nothing like that.

Or i missunderstood and you just uploaded the acpatcher files so we can patch ourselves?

I can see only what is in the attachment.
[Android Themes] zhuhang:
In my second post, there's 3 options.

One, u download the acpatcher files and patch yourself. (OPTION 1)

two, do everything yourself with instruction.

and the third one is OPTION 3 where i will help u to make the acpatch, the link is different. the link u need is in OPTION 3.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uisgdlyast:
It will always be slow since its on 2g, nothing you can do.

Why aren't there laws that make it so cell phones are all interchangeable? Something like consumer freedom so you can buy any phone you want and use it on the carrier of your choice.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jotokun:
Actually, T-Mobile has said they're going to start adopting AT&T's 3G bands with the hope that Apple will let them sell subsidized iPhones. So depending on where you live, you may get 3G on the Atrix. I agree though, more interoperability is needed. This GSM/CDMA split we have is ridiculous.

I'm not using T-Mobile right now, but in a year (when my contract expires) I'm switching to one of their value plans and will unlocking my Atrix to use with them if I'm still happy with it. Given that so far the only spec I see improving on newer phones is the screen resolution, I think it'll still be plenty usable when that happens.

I've been searching, used the search and been going through threads, either I over looked it, or haven't reached it yet. I remember talking about it before. What's the app for a stock not rooted EVO 3D to dim the captivate buttons?? *flaming starts now*

Support TrevE! Fah Q CIQ!!
[HTC EVO 3D] mjcole2003:
I can't find anything either. Just root your device and download the app: root explorer. Then open the app and go to sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/button-backlight/ press and hold 'currents' , open in text editor( one of the choices available) and change that number, usually its a 20, to the number 2. Hit the menu the select 'save changes.' Everytime you reboot your phone though you'll have to do this process again.
[HTC EVO 3D] james873:
I think it was screen filter
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
Thanks guys. I ended up coming across screen filter, and it worked but for some reason u was thinking there was another app that just made them dim. No biggie though, it was for a friend, I can't convence him to root lol

Can't post in the Overcome development thread because I'm too new. Anyway the Overcome website has had a "Database Error" for a couple of days now. I'm trying to flash my Galaxy Tab and I can't follow the directions at this link

p1000.teamovercome.net/?page_id=64

because of the error. There's so many files in that dev thread I don't know what I'm doing.

I was guessing

Restock 001001-GB-Stock-Safe-v5.zip

Flash Kernal 002001-Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar

No idea what the difference between these two ROMs are

001002-Overcome_7_Series_v4.0.0_Wipe.zip

001003-Overcome_7_Series_v4.0.0_NoWipe.zip

It doesn't remove clockwork. It uses the sdcard mount point to your external SD card. Internal is /mnt/emmc. If you're using rom manager the clockwork folder is just in a different place. Flashing doesn't actually touch your recovery partition.

uhh, this is an alpha version. I'm pretty sure it did because after flashing this I can't get into recovery, download mode, or even boot. And I'm not a noob to android, I've had damn near every tmobile android phone you can think of, all rooted w/ custom roms, nexus one, nexus s, mt4g, g2x, sensation, and now the galaxy s2. This is the first time I've ever had a brick. Odin doesn't even recognize it. I cleared the data/factory reset, dalvik cache, and cache before flashing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeyinid:
You might be bricked, which I seriously doubt if you flashed the CM7 for our phone, but CM7 isn't what bricked it. Oh, you do know that the old drivers you used before don't work with CM7 right? Which is probably why your PC wont recognize it.

Its tough if your phone wont boot. My laptop automatically found all the drivers for me through windows update the first time I plugged it in after flashing CM7. Maybe someone actually knows what drivers they are and can point you in the right direction. I pulled all the files and sent them to someone that couldn't get the drivers to install but it still wouldn't work.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbrunner7:
I would build it right away

I (and probably a dozen other devs) would start build such an app right away, if only Microsoft made available the APIs needed for such an app to be possible.

If there was a way to query the information, an app to display and sum times would be rather trivial indeed.

Now, it's just a dream and maybe something for unlocked phones running "homebrew" software...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Well, on T-Mobile (at least in the US) there's a Marketplace app that does this, but it gets it by querying T-Mobile's data, not by collecting the data on the phone itself...

Maybe something similar exists, or could be created, for other carriers? There's probably a website taht most carriers offer this info on, and the app could check that site with your credentials and report for you. A really cool version might even use a live tile to update your remaining usage periodically.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
i have seen a post about nokias new app that right about to come out. it has a call duration history, incoming/outgoing calls, summary, and the same for data transfer. i've seen some pictures but i dont remember how they will call it. but if nokia has this app, why would the other wp7 lack of this feature ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Well, the data is almost certainly available within the phone *somewhere* and the problem is just a matter of finding it. Mind you, I'd be very interested in pulling apart that Nokia app anyhow, because I'm not sure that the normal sandbox would give enough permissions to access such data. If it doesn't, but the app still pulls the data from the phone directly, that means it's using a high-privilege Nokia firmware component (probably a driver), and that means one more potential avenue for interop-unlock.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
yeah the problems are in the permissions we have today. but i have an rooted htc 7 pro and looked some folders inside the windows folder and some registry i couldn't see before with an dev.unlock. i have found such data, or the triggers for the data, some named incoming calls, outgoing calls, and so on, i have found that but i dont have an clue where the data is :) thats just for developers, they get it, and i would love to test this nokia app, i have seen it and it is very usefull!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbrunner7:
Would it be feasible that so far Microsoft itself does not bother to keep count about calls and their durations in stock WP7, and that for the said Nokia app the driver component not only hands the info to the app but does the counting as well?
